Thanks for your electrical question Dale.
Dale, you really have me wondering just what kind of light switch you have. Please advise – Thanks!
By the way – I would get annoyed too, although it might be interesting if you have a bird or cat in the house.

I’ve noticed that when using the living room light switch, a double switch, to turn the central light on, the light sometimes works sometimes doesn’t but there’s a weird three chirps that occurs whenever I do switch on or off. What is it? How do I fix it?
